SLICK!! real slick i stay away from one sound i don’t want to be a artist boxed in so i experiment with with sounds but i always give the same me slick and witty
What is your creative process like?
If i’m not writing in the studio i like to zone to the beat while i’m in the car driving. Driving around looking at what’s going on outside of me, i’m a visual writer so i like to see details
Who would you most like to collaborate with?
Busta and Jay
If you could go open a show for any artist who would it be?
Would of loved to open up for that Hard Knock Life Tour in 99!!! that was probably the best show i’ve seen personally and everyone that took part of it are part of the reason i became the artist i am, shiiiit i would of opened up for that for free just to be able to soak up what i could’ve from them fellas you got think about that line up and what they had out at that time

not to let certain energies around me! This is something I think we all know, but when it comes to certain people we may feel guilty about not having them around so we allow them in our space. But when a third party see’s something they don’t think is good for you and tells you it’s almost reassuring so you don’t have to feel guilty
